from the residence of Mr.. and Mrs. w. j..
Beattie yesterday afternoon. Owing to the
contagious character of the disease, no
services were held at the house, but brief
and consoling remarks were made at the
grave.
Last nights rehearsal for the Paper Car
nival minuet was a most successful one, and
gives some idea of the imposing nature of
the entertainments. The practices will be
kept up every night this week, the intention
being 20 make the affair as near perfect as
possible.
By reference to our telegraphic columns
it will be seen that the wedding of Miss
Croker of San Francisco to Mr.. Aexan-
der, of New York-the distinguished couple
who passed through this city some two
weeks ago-took place at the home of the
bride yesterday.
Mrs. Nicholson, an old lady of eighty-fve
years, was standing in front of her sons
residence in the Eighteenth ward the other
day, when runaway horse belonging to
John Evans dashed by her. She was caught
by wheel of the buggy, thrown down and
drag 2ed for some distance. Had it been
younger person nothing serious would prob
ably have resulted from the accident, but as
it is, fears are entertained as to the result.
The Silver Grays thirst for revenge. The
closely contested base ball game of last
Saturday gives them courage. Another
game is docketed for the coming Saturday.
This will undoubtedly be one of the most
exciting games witnessed in Salt Lake for
many years. 1t is predicted that 10 more
than four TALES will be scored by either
side. The last game would have resulted in
a tie but for two wild throws on the Silver
Grays side.
Sam Levy has the agency for Swift's
patent refrigerator. 1t is designed for the
storage of cigars and tobacco and is made
of capacities from one to twenty thousand
cigars. They are lined with zinc, are
properly ventilated and at the bottom is a
shallow drawer which contains some kind
of porous paper substance, which when
saturated with water will for mon tn keep
the tobacco at proper temperature and de-
gree of moisture. They form pretty piece
of furniture for either a bar or a gentle
mans room, and no saloon should be with
out one.
Another of those delightful entertain
ments will be given tonight in Temple of
Honor hall, over the Deseret Bank. Every
one is invited to be present who takes any
interest in the cause of temperance. The
entertainment will consist of vocal and in
strumental music, recitations, with one or
two speeches in behalf of the temperance
work. Held's Silver Cornet Band will give
several selections during the evening. This
will close the entertainments for the sea-
son, and the programme has been arranged
by careful hands, and all who attend may
rest assured that an evening of enjoyment
is in store for them.
The Utah InduStriGliSt is a new Utah
county monthly whose howery inspection is
thrust upon US. The new sheet was con-
ceived upon the order of the last 'epistI e.
of the First Presidency of the Church. Pro-
fessor Karl G. Meser, of the Brigham
Young Academy, will supply the spring
poetry-written in Dutch for self-protection
and Professor Talmage will paralyze the
readers with an occasional essay on the "to-
beness of the is" Seriously speaking if the
journal sticks to its promise to represent the
industrial interests of the Territory it will
do much good, and deserves to flourish and
enjoy prosperity all its days.
THE DEMOCRAT takes pleasure in correct
ing an error into which it was unconsciously
led by the mistaken assertion of an officer
of that body, that two owners of the Repub
lican organ composed the entire Printing
Committee of the Loyal League. 1t ap-
pears that our informant had COMPOUNDED
another committee with the one which he
supposed had the direction of the printing
matters for the League. The fact is, there
Is no Printing Committee. That matter
was left entirely to the Secretary, who is,
however, an owner in the Republican organ.
It is but justice to that gentleman to state
that latterly he has acted fairly toward The
DEMOCRAT in the distribution of the print
ing for the League.
Tho connection of the name of Judge
Carlton with that of notorious character
who has lately served q term of a year in
the County Jail is characteristic of the r.
O.'s idea of Democracy and Mormonism.
Its respect for a Mormon convict is greater
than for a Democratic gentleman. Such
vile abuse should cause the Judge, If he
gives the matter thought, to feel that he
is complimented by the admission that he
is hated by the author of such blackguard-
ism, while the Mormon eI-oonvict would be
justified IN calling the writer TO account for
mentioning his name respectfully in sheet
whose praise would further blacken the
character of the most unmitigated scoundrel
on the face of the earth.
An accident which occurred on a Park
City train on Monday last, might have re-
resulted more seriously. In leaving the
stations between Park CITY and Salt Lake.
no warning is given by the engineer, until
the train is in motion. At Echo an old
man who got aboard at Coalville, was stand
ing with one foot on a step to one of the
oars, and the other on the platform, when
the train started. He was thrown off the
platform, and dragged by the car step for
some distance, until a signal from one of
the terrified passengers, stopped the train.
The old man sustained several cuts and
bruises, but fortunately no serious injuries.
The DEMooRArs informer says that had the
clothes of the gentleman caught on the
platform, the steps would have literally
cut him in two.
